The prevalence of infidelity is so high in our media that we're exposed to the thought all the time. It's not surprising that we also tend to internalize this fear, because divorce rates are so high we assume that infidelity must be rampant. When you're in a long term committed relationship it's natural to have anxiety about the future and to question the strength of your bond with someone else. Because we spend so much time with our partners, it's easy to see changes in their everyday habits. These changes may be tied to their own anxiety about the future and may have nothing to do with infidelity. It's common to question our relationships and to feel anxious about the trust we bestow to loved ones - it's okay to be insecure sometimes. If you're worried about it constantly though, you need to talk to your partner and explain why you feel anxious. Once you openly communicate about the source of your insecurity, you can come up with a solution together.

Past experiences or insecurities play a role. Try to identify what triggers you and talk it through

There might be an underlying self-worth issue you might need to address. Try to think about it, what would it say about you if you found out that your husband cheated on you? Would your narration say more about you and your worth or more about him?

Think about it, does it stem from a trauma in the past? or are you insecure? If it is the former you have some unresolved feelings, let yourself feel those emotions and let go of it once done. If it's the latter then, what are you lacking? Work on those skills, weak areas and better yourself.

You might have trust issues because of earlier bad experiences with boyfriends, or your parents having a bad relationship or friends having bad relationships.

Because you may be not spending plenty of time with him. Try giving him some time and understand his emotional needs. If you'll be able to identify and resolve his emotional needs with your compassion than I am really sure he'll become more attractive towards you and hence you won't have thoughts of him cheating on you :)

I'm sorry that you think so, maybe its because 1-you, don't think you're enough for him, which is only your self-confidence. 2- you have been in a relationship where people have let you down.

I'd suggest opening up to him about your worries, in a calm and collected manner, so that you both can sort through the problem together.

You may have been hurt before in the past by a significant other being disloyal. Talk with your husband.

Insecurity, you should talk with him about how do you feel and look for a solution. And start trusting him.
